Even the Demons
People do go to church
Walk thru a door
Choose a seat
Stay awhile
Turn & smile
Say they believe
But rituals alone
Do not change a heart
May or may not help
You grow
Closer, more intimate,
Obedient
To your Creator
So only saying you believe
Will not save your soul
Just to believe is only
The first part of the goal
Because even
Demons believe & tremble
They just chose the wrong side
Do not follow their guide
God is after the Human Heart
So He may start
To transform you
Into His Son,
A co-heir with Him
So you may win,
Transcend
The darkness
Enter His light,
A forever Paradise!!
Just a few shots from a new Youtube video I did of a recent poem called THANK YOU set to music. Hope you enjoy and may God bless your day! Video: https://youtu.be/–cbEpuO0PU
What IS Courage
On a hill He created
With His hands
On a feckless day
& by the very clay
He had formed
Stripped bare,
He was crucified
That WAS courage
Left a golden throne
Of glory
To continue His story
Of calling us back home
Nevermore in
Satan’s darkness
To roam
That TOOK courage
On that crucial night
In history
For us, our destiny,
Was changed forever
Followers all
They left their call
Abandoned him
To that hill
Standing still
Alone
That was NOT courage
But the story was
Changed
As He arose out of
An empty grave
They rejoiced on that day
To follow His name
Most of the 12 were martyred
Terrible painful deaths
Suffered so obedience
They could claim
That IS courage!
Today there is no difference
So in holy reverence
For one so holy & pure
Who came only to reassure
Of God’s love, mercy
Forgiveness
Let us stand up
His name bless
Even if we have to suffer
Perhaps even death
That WILL BE our Courage!!
The Fortress
My fortress is 'YOUR JOY
'
Behind its stone thick walls
I rejoice
Raise hands & feet
To dance
From You, one loving glance
Incites a mad frenzy of worship
At your feet ancient angels
Take delight
In your power, beauty
Glory
The endless, eternal
Story
Unlimited, uncountable
Blessings
Flow forth for every man
From your overfilled hands
For those who choose
& refuse
To follow satan’s dark rebellion
In a story of so many tellings
he lost forever Paradise
Lives now only in cruel anger
& lies!

Not OK
On our own,
We are not OK
In our own power
Not for one second,
Or one hour
Will we ever be
Or see
Salvation, redemption
Only by the blinding light
From above
Drenched in eternity’s love
Can the dark in us
Ever be overcome
Only HIS SPIRIT can we trust
To do that job
We are too weak
From sin
Only in prayer
On our knees
Will we win
Any battle with
the satan
SO KILL OFF
THE OLD SELF
If you truly wish to see
That transformation
Only Christ can bring
So allowed you will be
With true Joy to say
‘It is not I that lives
But Christ that lives in me!’
